00:00:00My mentor, 2,000 years, and you have an age today.
00:00:06I only got to follow you for a few decades, and now, death at my door.
00:00:17Grandpa. Grandpa, please. You're too sick to be out here in this weather.
00:00:22Whoever's coming can wait. Your health comes first.
00:00:26No, death, she's right. We should take you to the hospital.
00:00:30I'm fine. Go inside, all of you.
00:00:40He's here.
00:00:59Oh!
00:01:11Fifty years been buying with Link, huh?
00:01:15God, how much time passed?
00:01:16Time catches up to everyone, except you.
00:01:21So, who are you next to the hospital?
00:01:24Keeping it easy. Part-time swim coach.
00:01:31So am I.
00:01:34You're done.
00:01:36You can tell me, Charles, what is it you want from me?
00:01:42You can always see right through me.
00:01:45After following you for 50 years, consider this my last quest.
00:01:51After I'm gone, please take care of my family for the next three years.
00:02:03I feel alone.
00:02:04But three years.
00:02:06After that, the students are on their own.
00:02:08Thank you, mister. Thank you, mister.
00:02:09Of course.
00:02:10What do they tell me, Charles? How do you expect me to fit in with them?
00:02:13Don't worry.
00:02:14I'm afraid.
00:02:18Hey.
00:02:19What's going on? Are you okay?
00:02:21Elaine, I need you to... I want to introduce you to somebody.
00:02:25This is so funny.
00:02:25It's Silas Lancaster.
00:02:27And, um, starting tonight, he's your husband.
00:02:33Grandpa, what are you talking about?
00:02:35I don't even know this guy, and I'm already in love with someone else.
00:02:38Dad?
00:02:40What the hell are you talking about?
00:02:42Who is this man?
00:02:42Mr. Lancaster is a respected college swimming coach,
00:02:46and a far better man than whoever Elaine thinks she's in love with.
00:02:51Mom.
00:02:52Dad, please.
00:02:53I don't want to marry some stranger.
00:02:56If anyone dares to object,
00:02:59I will freeze every Sterling account.
00:03:03And I will go to my grave knowing that my family filled me.
00:03:09Elaine, don't be selfish.
00:03:11Do as your grandfather asks.
00:03:13He knows what's best.
00:03:14She's right, sweetheart.
00:03:16I'll arrange a marriage score.
00:03:18Don't worry, Dad.
00:03:20I'll wake it up.
00:03:26All right, Grandpa.
00:03:28I'll marry him.
00:03:31It's the only way to make sure Mr. Lancaster watches over my family and our legacy for the next three
00:03:38years.
00:03:55We're here to put the Sterling facility out of commission for good.
00:04:00Understand?
00:04:01Gather, boss.
00:04:02Good, let's go.
00:04:11Where the hell are you?
00:04:12Get the fuck out of here.
00:04:14Get on over here, man.
00:04:25Get on over here.
00:04:34He's a fucking monster!
00:04:37Run!
00:04:56Where the hell are you?
00:04:57Sterling Factory, New Jersey.
00:04:59Why?
00:04:59What are you even doing there?
00:05:02Okay, never mind.
00:05:03Get to Club Pulse in Soho.
00:05:05You've got ten minutes.
00:05:08Ten minutes?
00:05:09We don't get in cabin time.
00:05:11Not my problem.
00:05:12Figure it out.
00:05:16Well?
00:05:17What did the old ball in chain say?
00:05:20He said, sure, of course.
00:05:22Nice.
00:05:24Alright, game on.
00:05:26Ten minutes.
00:05:27Mr. Whitefeet doesn't show.
00:05:29Then you're buying drinks.
00:05:31If he does, we are.
00:05:33Well, then I hope you brought your black card.
00:05:38Elaine, come on.
00:05:39Silas is your husband.
00:05:41Do you think you're being a bit harsh?
00:05:43He brought it on himself.
00:05:44Since Grandpa died three years ago, I have given him so many chances to walk away, but he refuses
00:05:50to divorce me.
00:05:52So fine.
00:05:53If he wants to stay that badly, he can stay.
00:05:56It's like having my own personal lap dog.
00:05:59Honestly, even calling him bad is generous.
00:06:02He teaches swim lessons.
00:06:03Perf.
00:06:06He actually approaches a D1 program.
00:06:09They're going to be going to Nasham.
00:06:11The point is, you are Elaine Sterling, heirs to the Sterling Empire.
00:06:15You're running the thing.
00:06:18Holy shit.
00:06:19Tristan is coming back into town in three days.
00:06:24Your Prince Charming is coming home.
00:06:26I bet you're excited.
00:06:28Come on.
00:06:29Gabriel, I'm married.
00:06:30You guys were the it couple in college.
00:06:33After your grandpa forced you to marry Silas, his family shipped him off so he could run the
00:06:37Italian office.
00:06:38But now that he's back, you should dump your useless stray mutt of a husband.
00:06:47Ten seconds and still no sign of old yeller.
00:06:54Guess you're losing this one.
00:07:00Oh.
00:07:01Gabriel.
00:07:08Damn, Elaine.
00:07:10You really trained him well.
00:07:13You called.
00:07:14Everything okay?
00:07:16Are you blind?
00:07:17I'm perfectly fine.
00:07:19Well, you called, so what's up?
00:07:23If you are that desperate to come to my rescue, my shoes are dirty.
00:07:28Clean them.
00:07:31What, are you too good for that?
00:07:34I mean, if you can't handle something as simple as this, what good are you to me anyway,
00:07:39Silas?
00:07:43Please, take care of my family for the next three years.
00:07:54Oh, come on.
00:07:56Elaine and I were just playing a little game called Dog Whistle.
00:08:02We bet that no matter where you were, if she called you, you would show up straight away
00:08:07like a good boy.
00:08:08I gotta say, you didn't disappoint us.
00:08:11Seriously, there's so much traffic right now.
00:08:13How'd you get here?
00:08:14You have wings or something?
00:08:22You called me.
00:08:23I thought you were in trouble.
00:08:25About yours behind my back, calling me a dumb chud to your friends?
00:08:28That's right.
00:08:29Okay.
00:08:31Wait, are you, like, pissed or something?
00:08:34Oh, because I...
00:08:37I'm just getting started.
00:08:53Well, if you hate it that much, then you can leave.
00:08:55I am not stopping you.
00:08:57That!
00:08:58I'll even pay you enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life.
00:09:02You know, if you have any ounce of pride left in your body, take your deal and get the
00:09:09hell out of my life.
00:09:12If I hadn't promised your grandfather I'd take care of your family for three years, I'd have
00:09:17walked away a long time ago.
00:09:19Whatever.
00:09:20Only three days left.
00:09:21When the time's up, the Sterlings will never see me again.
00:09:24Hey, freeloader.
00:09:25Elaine is talking to you.
00:09:27Or do you need her permission to speak, too?
00:09:36It's getting late.
00:09:38We'll meet you tomorrow.
00:09:38Come on, let me, uh, let me drive you home.
00:09:43Man.
00:09:45Elaine just humiliated you in front of everyone, and you're still willing to be her personal
00:09:50Uber?
00:09:51Talk about desperate.
00:09:53I guess that's the secret to being a kept man.
00:09:56No shame.
00:09:57No spine.
00:10:00Thanks, but I'll get home myself.
00:10:10Elaine didn't mean to humiliate you.
00:10:12She's just, she's got a temper.
00:10:14That's all.
00:10:15Try not to take it to heart.
00:10:20Didn't mean to humiliate me.
00:10:23Whatever.
00:10:23Three more days.
00:10:24Then none of this will happen.
00:10:27He's a monster.
00:10:30Good thing he didn't come after us, or we'd all be dead for sure.
00:10:33That guy.
00:10:34No.
00:10:34That thing.
00:10:35He's a human.
00:10:36He's a fucking demon.
00:10:38Makes sense.
00:10:39John's turn's no gun.
00:10:40Son's useless.
00:10:42The guns are spoiled.
00:10:43But yet, they still own the fucking world's medicine scavenage.
00:10:47Ah, I guess now we know why.
00:10:49They've got some damn women going to the fucking Empire.
00:10:53You should get out of fucking New York tonight.
00:10:55I'm not running to the fucking freak ever again.
00:11:00You're back.
00:11:02Come sit down.
00:11:10Where the hell have you been?
00:11:12It's already late and dinner's not even ready.
00:11:14Did you want us to starve?
00:11:17I was out picking up Elaine.
00:11:18And I have my own things to do.
00:11:20If you guys are hungry, you can have the maid pick you up something.
00:11:23You've got to wait for me.
00:11:25Excuse me.
00:11:26We let you live here, eat our food, and now you don't even want to cook?
00:11:31You really are ungrateful.
00:11:33You know that?
00:11:34They can't stand the maid's cooking.
00:11:36So be useful for once and start getting dinner ready, Silas.
00:11:45What if I don't?
00:11:46What if one day I don't come back?
00:11:48Would you all just sit at the table waiting to be fed?
00:11:53Don't come back?
00:11:55What is that supposed to mean?
00:11:59What's that supposed to mean?
00:12:00Are you so tired of cooking that you're trying to pick a fight with me, Silas?
00:12:06Forget about it.
00:12:08Well, then get in there and start cooking.
00:12:12Don't make me sleep twice.
00:12:20Oh, Elaine, you have that meeting with Mr. Whitmore tomorrow.
00:12:24What are the odds that you land that Hudson Yards deal?
00:12:27We're still a few steps behind our competitors, but I'll do everything I can.
00:12:33You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:12:37The business depends on it.
00:12:40Your father just cares about golf.
00:12:44Silas is completely useless.
00:12:47You're all we've got.
00:12:48I know, Mom.
00:12:51Tristan's back in town, you know.
00:12:53And you have that meeting with his uncle tomorrow?
00:12:56Perfect timing.
00:12:58Give him a call.
00:12:59I know you two are so into each other at school.
00:13:02I'm sure he'd help.
00:13:09You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:13:12The business depends on it.
00:13:24Can't sleep?
00:13:25If I'm keeping you up, you can always take the couch.
00:13:28Don't worry about Hudson Yards, all right?
00:13:31Don't overthink it.
00:13:33Yeah, like you know anything about business.
00:13:36It's not as simple as frying an egg.
00:13:54Hello?
00:13:55Elaine.
00:13:56I'm outside.
00:14:13I couldn't wait to see you.
00:14:15It's been too long.
00:14:20Wait, I thought you weren't coming back for another three days.
00:14:25I mean, that's what I told everyone, but of course, you're not everyone.
00:14:29I couldn't go another day without seeing you.
00:14:32Tristan, I'm sorry, but I'm married.
00:14:37I know, it's just a stray dog that you picked up, but now that I'm back, you can cancel this
00:14:45joke wedding and Elaine, are you going to marry me?
00:14:51Tristan, I'm glad that you're back, but this is too much, too soon.
00:14:59Of course, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
00:15:03Look, you can take your time, and honestly, just seeing you tonight, I mean, that was enough
00:15:07for me.
00:15:08Good night.
00:15:14Tristan, I have a meeting with your Uncle Mark tomorrow about the Hudson Yards project.
00:15:20Is there any chance you can put in a good word for me?
00:15:23Help me land the deal?
00:15:25I can help you out.
00:15:26No worries.
00:15:28Tristan, if I can pull this deal off, I will owe you.
00:15:31Big time.
00:15:31Look, look, look, I can handle it, okay?
00:15:34It just, it's freezing cold out here, and I really don't want you to catch a cold, so
00:15:38you should probably go back inside.
00:15:39I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:15:42Bye.
00:15:57Can't sleep.
00:15:59Lots of high tea might help.
00:16:01Wait.
00:16:04Are you really not going to ask where I was just now?
00:16:07You told me if I did?
00:16:08You know, since we got married, you've done everything for me.
00:16:13Never had a bad temper, never complained.
00:16:17You're just a good man.
00:16:19Kind and gentle.
00:16:21But I need you to understand something.
00:16:24Even if you spent another decade by my side, nothing is ever going to happen between us.
00:16:31Kind and gentle is just another way of saying weak.
00:16:35Get some rest.
00:16:37It's late.
00:16:46Hello?
00:16:47Hi, Uncle Mark.
00:16:48I know it's late, but I need a favor.
00:16:51Hudson Yards.
00:16:53Look, I'm going to stop you right there.
00:16:55That deal is done.
00:16:57We're going with a company that was strongly recommended by our biggest investor.
00:17:01Stay out of it.
00:17:02Got it?
00:17:18Mr. Whitmore, I know that Sterling Group isn't the most obvious choice for the Hudson Yards project.
00:17:24But if you give us a shot, I will personally oversee every detail.
00:17:30And I promise you we will exceed your expectations.
00:17:37Don't worry, Miss Sterling.
00:17:40Hudson Yards is yours.
00:17:45Contract's already drawn up.
00:17:46Just sign it and we're good to go.
00:17:48Mr. Whitmore, you don't even want to look at our proposal?
00:17:51Don't need to.
00:17:52Someone I trust vouched for Sterling Group personally.
00:17:55I have complete faith.
00:17:58Here.
00:18:02Who will exactly vouch for us?
00:18:05Let's just say it's someone who is very close to you.
00:18:11It had to be Tristan.
00:18:14It had to be Tristan.
00:18:16Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:18:17We will not let you down.
00:18:19I am sure you won't.
00:18:29Hey.
00:18:30Sir, I followed your instructions to the letter, Mr. Lancaster.
00:18:35Mrs. Sterling, she just signed the contract.
00:18:37Great.
00:18:38I'll get big time, Mark.
00:18:39Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:18:41I'm happy that I was able to help.
00:18:44If there's anything else you need, just say the word.
00:18:49Am I...
00:18:50I'm so sorry.
00:18:50Tristan, we got the Hudson Yards project.
00:18:52It is all thanks to you.
00:18:54You're a lifesaver.
00:18:56Wait.
00:18:57Uncle Mark said that the project had already been assigned.
00:19:00Did he change his mind to do me a favor?
00:19:02Yeah.
00:19:03No big deal.
00:19:04I mean, as long as you're happy, that's all that matters.
00:19:08Can I get you lunch?
00:19:08No.
00:19:09After everything you've done, I owe you this one.
00:19:22Oh, my cheeks feel hot.
00:19:25I think I've had too much.
00:19:26Really, I mean, I think you look gorgeous.
00:19:30I mean, as always.
00:19:31You know, I remember when we were in college.
00:19:34Everyone used to say that we were so good together.
00:19:37I think if I'd never left for London, then...
00:19:40We would have even had kids or something by now.
00:19:43Three years is long enough to change everything.
00:19:52Why didn't you tell me from the contract you left?
00:19:55I've been waiting here for six, seven hours.
00:19:59I'm having lunch with a friend, so you can just go, okay?
00:20:04Are you drinking?
00:20:05God, we drop it already?
00:20:07I am hanging out there.
00:20:09No, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:20:10This must be Silas, right?
00:20:12Yeah, I'm Tristan Whitmore.
00:20:15Elaine's ex-boyfriend.
00:20:17Elaine's ex?
00:20:19You know, I know that I left and she had to settle for someone else,
00:20:23but now that I'm back, we should probably just walk away.
00:20:26Before things get ugly, of course.
00:20:28Okay.
00:20:29Silas, don't read into this.
00:20:31I'm treating Tristan to lunch because he helped me land the Hudson Yards deal.
00:20:35and we had a little bit too much to drink.
00:20:39I'll be home soon.
00:20:42You crossed the line, Tristan.
00:20:45Okay, look, I'm sorry, right?
00:20:47But I hate seeing you with that guy when you could be with me.
00:20:51I mean, you're way out of this league.
00:20:53Come on.
00:20:54Forget it.
00:20:54I should go.
00:20:55I'm just going to get an Uber.
00:20:56Elaine, please.
00:20:57Look, I got all this wonderful sushi and we have this wonderful sake.
00:21:01Let's at least have one last cheers, yeah?
00:21:03One more drink, okay?
00:21:04And then we're going to toast it.
00:21:09Sound good?
00:21:12Cheers.
00:21:13To us.
00:21:16And to our past.
00:21:26I should go.
00:21:28It's...
00:21:28It's good.
00:21:30Wait, hey, hey, hey.
00:21:31Hey, Glenn.
00:21:33Are you okay?
00:21:34I think I dreamt you.
00:21:36Okay, look, look, look.
00:21:37Just rest in life, yeah?
00:21:46I'm leaving now.
00:21:48You're even more beautiful than I remember.
00:21:50Never stopped mourning me.
00:21:52No, Tristan, stop.
00:21:53I'm married.
00:21:55No, no, no.
00:21:57No, no, no, no, no.
00:21:57No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:21:58no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:22:01Stop.
00:22:01Stop.
00:22:02Stop.
00:22:02I want to be with you, yeah?
00:22:04I want to be with...
00:22:05I want us to be together.
00:22:07Don't.
00:22:07Silas.
00:22:08Together.
00:22:09Our feelings will be the most powerful to save.
00:22:12No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:22:23Silas?
00:22:24No.
00:22:25He actually fights?
00:22:28Oh my...
00:22:28Hey!
00:22:29No!
00:22:29Silas!
00:22:30Silas, stop!
00:22:31Leave him alone.
00:22:33So, you're Silas, huh?
00:22:35The loser who had been leeching off of her for years?
00:22:38Well, you know, now that you hit me, I can't finish.
00:22:45Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:50Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:53He fought himself on top of you. He will re-apologize-
00:22:55Apologize.
00:23:04I'm sorry.
00:23:08Good boy.
00:23:10You know, I'm gonna slide this down.
00:23:13Just for Wayne's sake.
00:23:16Okay? Look, I'm so sorry about earlier. I was drunk, okay?
00:23:21It was my mistake. I didn't hurt you right. Look, I'm sorry.
00:23:23It was my fault. It was my fault.
00:23:25Okay, it's fine. Look, it's late. We should just go.
00:23:29But we'll talk later, right?
00:23:31Can I talk to you later?
00:23:48Elaine, how did it go with Mr. Whitmore?
00:23:50Did you get the Hudson Yards project?
00:23:53Judging by that look?
00:23:55I'm guessing not.
00:23:58What? What?
00:24:01Wow!
00:24:03Isn't that fast?
00:24:04It feels like this usually takes weeks to negotiate.
00:24:08Well, Tristan talked to his uncle.
00:24:11He really went out of his way to vouch for us.
00:24:14Of course, Tristan.
00:24:16There's one person who knows how to get things done.
00:24:20Unlike some people who just mooch off others and never do anything useful ever.
00:24:27I think Tristan got you Hudson Yards.
00:24:37So if it wasn't Tristan, then who was it?
00:24:39You?
00:24:43Go make us dinner.
00:24:45Can't you see that we're starving?
00:24:59I get why you're upset.
00:25:01But I appreciate you keeping your cool back at the restaurant.
00:25:05If you'd hit Tristan, things would have gotten a lot worse.
00:25:08You're thanking me for not hitting him.
00:25:09He tried to rape you, but since you think he got you the deal, you're gonna...
00:25:13Let it slide?
00:25:15You're overreacting.
00:25:16Tristan was drunk. He didn't mean it.
00:25:20And...
00:25:20You have no idea how important this deal is for Sterling Group.
00:25:26Tristan was the only one who could help.
00:25:28Just... just try to understand, okay?
00:25:31You think Tristan Whitmore got you the deal?
00:25:34Tristan might be a Whitmore,
00:25:36but his uncle sure as hell did not give him a seven-figure contract
00:25:39because his nephew asked nicely.
00:25:42Okay.
00:25:43Well then who vouched for us?
00:25:46I don't know.
00:25:47Took anybody.
00:25:48But it sure as hell was a Tristan Whitmore.
00:25:52Look, you don't need to be jealous of Tristan.
00:25:56We're married, for God's sake.
00:25:57I'd never cross that line.
00:25:59Look, Elena, you'd grow up.
00:26:01Your grandfather started this company for nothing.
00:26:03Don't be the one to ruin his legs.
00:26:11Ruin it?
00:26:12Are you kidding me?
00:26:14I am the reason that Sterling Group is thriving.
00:26:17You, on the other hand,
00:26:20are just a house husband living off of my family.
00:26:23But, now you think that you can lecture me?
00:26:26You've really forgotten your place, haven't you?
00:26:30I mean, I protected you too much.
00:26:32Because you are still just a spoiled princess
00:26:35who never had to fix reality.
00:26:38Call me spoiled all you want,
00:26:41but you protect me.
00:26:43Really?
00:26:45Driving me around.
00:26:47Cooking.
00:26:48Driving.
00:26:49Waiting around for me.
00:26:50That is not protection.
00:26:51That's a family.
00:26:53Tomorrow, my promise to you grandfather ends.
00:26:56Time you finally learn the truth.
00:26:59Look, I've been holding your family together for three years now.
00:27:02You think Sterling Group's doing well because of you?
00:27:04No.
00:27:06Without me, you guys would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
00:27:13How I guess Tristan really got under your skin, huh?
00:27:17You're actually saying that Sterling Group would fall apart without you.
00:27:22I'm just telling you the truth.
00:27:24Watch your tone with Elaine or I'll throw you out of this house.
00:27:29Just kick him out.
00:27:30I mean, a man who lives off his wife has no room to mouth off.
00:27:33Mom.
00:27:33Dad, please.
00:27:35Silas was just upset.
00:27:38Don't offend him, dear.
00:27:40You fulfilled your grandpa's last wish.
00:27:43Been married for three years now.
00:27:45It's time you filed for divorce.
00:27:48Exactly.
00:27:49It's time for you to dump this, don't you?
00:27:52Alright, Silas, listen.
00:27:54You crossed the line.
00:27:56What?
00:27:58I am generous enough to give you another chance.
00:28:02Say you're sorry.
00:28:04And we'll forget this happened.
00:28:08You want me to apologize?
00:28:11Yes.
00:28:11What, do you have a problem with that?
00:28:14You heard her.
00:28:16Apologize.
00:28:17Now.
00:28:20I'm losing my patience here, Silas.
00:28:23This is your last chance.
00:28:28And if I don't?
00:28:30Then we're done.
00:28:31You're out of the Sterling family for good.
00:28:34You hear that?
00:28:35Well, if you don't apologize, you're out.
00:28:39So get to it.
00:28:45Then we're done.
00:28:46Let's get a divorce.
00:28:48What?
00:28:51What did you just say?
00:28:53Marriage court is closed by now, but we'll go tomorrow morning.
00:28:56We'll get the papers signed up.
00:29:00Did I hear that right?
00:29:03Silas wants to divorce you?
00:29:05Oh, thank God.
00:29:08You could do so much better than him, sweetheart.
00:29:11But what if Silas changes his mind?
00:29:13You know how obsessed he is with Elaine.
00:29:16Then we'll drag him to court ourselves.
00:29:18This divorce is happening tomorrow.
00:29:20Don't forget.
00:29:21It was his idea.
00:29:22Even if he changes his mind, I'm not forgiving him this time.
00:29:27Let's forget that loser.
00:29:29Well, if no one's cooking, looks like we're going out.
00:29:33Why don't you choose?
00:29:33I'm not hungry.
00:29:35You guys go ahead.
00:29:36Mm-hmm.
00:30:02Honey?
00:30:04What now?
00:30:07Look.
00:30:10Silas?
00:30:11Had to be.
00:30:13We were out.
00:30:14He was the only one here.
00:30:15I told you he was bluffing.
00:30:17If he really wanted a divorce, he wouldn't go around cleaning like some maid.
00:30:21Unless he wants us to look like the bad guys or something.
00:30:25If he apologizes to you tomorrow, maybe you should think about taking him back.
00:30:33Been working on that Hudson Yards deal for a while now.
00:30:36I need some rest.
00:30:39Here.
00:30:40Want a massage?
00:30:41I knew it.
00:30:43Now he's trying to butter me up.
00:30:46Fine.
00:30:50Well, now that it's just the two of us, say you're sorry and we can pretend like this divorce BS
00:30:57never happened.
00:31:02Hey, I'm talking to you.
00:31:05You know what I mean?
00:31:07What?
00:31:09It's rough.
00:31:12Still bluffing?
00:31:14Let's see how you act at the courthouse tomorrow.
00:31:35Goodbye, Elaine.
00:31:39But today our deal ends.
00:31:40From now on, the Sterlings are on their own.
00:32:07How are you doing, old friend?
00:32:09I've been protecting Elaine and the family for three years now.
00:32:12But after today that deal ends.
00:32:15After this they are...
00:32:18They're on their own.
00:32:29Silas was up before sunrise making all this.
00:32:32Does this look like a man that's getting ready for a divorce?
00:32:35Maybe we keep him around for a little while.
00:32:37Well, I've gotten used to his cooking after all.
00:32:44I've thought it over, Silas.
00:32:47I'll give you another chance.
00:32:48Sit down.
00:32:49Join us.
00:32:51I already ate.
00:32:53When you guys finish we'll go to the courthouse and send divorce papers.
00:32:57What?
00:33:01Okay, that is enough, Silas.
00:33:03I am sick of this attitude of yours.
00:33:06I'll wait in the car.
00:33:11Unbelievable.
00:33:12Elaine gives him another chance and he just walks out?
00:33:16What does he think?
00:33:16He has options?
00:33:18Divorce him, sweetheart.
00:33:19He's asking for it.
00:33:21It just might work out.
00:33:22I mean, once you're divorced maybe you and Tristan can get back together.
00:33:26Whatever his game is, I'm calling his bluff.
00:33:33Wait.
00:33:33Sign it first.
00:33:36And then we'll go in.
00:33:43You better not regret this.
00:33:56I thought he was bluffing.
00:33:59But he really went through with it.
00:34:01And didn't even ask for a single cent.
00:34:03Oh.
00:34:06And this car belongs to Stirling, so, uh...
00:34:10That's real.
00:34:14Oh my god.
00:34:15I just realized...
00:34:18Three years since Silas never really owned a single thing.
00:34:23Even his car wasn't really his.
00:34:25He was just there to drive me around.
00:34:28Alright.
00:34:29That's it then.
00:34:31Goodbye for good.
00:34:42So, what did I even mean to him?
00:34:45Why bother marrying me at all?
00:34:47What the hell?
00:34:49Goodbye for good?
00:34:50What is that?
00:34:51Some lame attempt to make me feel guilty?
00:34:54Or sad?
00:34:55Well screw you.
00:34:57Cause I am not falling for it.
00:35:08He threw this away.
00:35:11Should I really not mean anything to him?
00:35:17Where's Silas?
00:35:20So, it's...
00:35:21Is it official?
00:35:22You two are actually divorced?
00:35:24He didn't make a scene?
00:35:25I didn't beg you to forgive him?
00:35:30No.
00:35:31It was quick.
00:35:33Too quick.
00:35:34That's wonderful, sweetheart.
00:35:36You're finally free.
00:35:37It's a new beginning.
00:35:39We should go celebrate you finally getting rid of that dead weight.
00:35:42I think I just need to focus on work more.
00:35:45I'm going to the office this afternoon.
00:35:48The Hudson Yards project is already underway.
00:35:51That's my girl.
00:35:52Strong as ever.
00:35:53The worst can't get you down.
00:35:59She doesn't look happy.
00:36:01Do you think it's because of Silas?
00:36:04Honestly, I think it's normal.
00:36:06You can get attached to anything after three years.
00:36:08Even a mangy mutt.
00:36:09It's just habit.
00:36:11Not love.
00:36:12True.
00:36:12Silas was useless.
00:36:15But he did take care of Elaine.
00:36:18I just think she's not used to being alone.
00:36:20She never really loved him anyway.
00:36:21Just give it a few days.
00:36:23Oh.
00:36:24Tristan came back to town.
00:36:26Once he hears that Elaine is divorced,
00:36:28I'm sure he'll come running.
00:36:30That'll cheer her up.
00:36:34He's sorry.
00:36:35They are not that she's not ready to go.
00:36:35He's not gone.
00:36:37No.
00:36:50He's not my uncle's daughter.
00:36:52He's not my uncle's daughter.
00:36:59But he's not my uncle's mother.
00:37:01I feel as though I'm falling
00:37:04But I ain't falling yet
00:37:07I hold it in, I push it out
00:37:10I breathe again
00:37:16Silas, there's not a single trace of you left in the house
00:37:21Is this on purpose?
00:37:23Is this your way of punishing me by erasing yourself from my life?
00:37:32Rise high and pray
00:37:35Just to breathe again
00:37:40Gone.
00:37:43Everything's gone.
00:37:48Silas, you think that ghosting me makes you the winner?
00:37:53I don't ever want to see your face again.
00:38:03We're throwing you a fresh dark fiesta to celebrate your divorce. We're at Tristan's house. Get over here!
00:38:09No, Rebecca, I'm not really near you.
00:38:12Hello?
00:38:30live in, congrats. I mean, freedom's never look so good on you
00:38:44Thanks.
00:38:50What's up with Elaine?
00:38:52I thought she was into you.
00:38:55Look, we just...
00:38:56We just had a little misunderstanding last time I saw her.
00:38:59I think she might still be mad.
00:39:02Well, she's single again.
00:39:04A golden opportunity like this doesn't fall into your lap every day.
00:39:08Don't screw it up.
00:39:09Come on, let us slip this down.
00:39:17Fiona can't make it.
00:39:19We're swamped with exams.
00:39:22She told us to take care of Elaine without her.
00:39:26Let's start.
00:39:28Elaine, today is all about you.
00:39:31Come on, say something.
00:39:32What's it like being single again?
00:39:36What's it like being single again?
00:39:41I don't really feel anything.
00:39:45I don't really feel anything.
00:39:48It's all good.
00:39:49Just say whatever comes to mind, Elaine.
00:39:51Yeah.
00:39:52We know the past three years sucked for you.
00:39:54So now that you finally got rid of that loser, Silas, you must have something to say.
00:39:58Uh, these last three years have been rough.
00:40:06You all know that my grandfather chose Silas, not me.
00:40:12I thought that when we finally got divorced, I'd be happy.
00:40:15And you are now, right?
00:40:18No.
00:40:20We signed the papers ten hours ago and I'm not happy at all.
00:40:24Like, not even a little.
00:40:26Seriously?
00:40:26Don't tell me you regret filing for divorce.
00:40:30Regretting?
00:40:31Of course not.
00:40:32I mean, the divorce is exactly what I wanted.
00:40:35I just don't understand why I'm not happy.
00:40:40Maybe Silas spoiled you.
00:40:42I mean, he was waiting on you hand and foot and for him to just suddenly be gone?
00:40:46Like, that's probably fair.
00:40:47Yeah, like I was obsessed with you.
00:40:49I bet he's crying his eyes out now.
00:40:53I'm not so sure about that.
00:40:55Because he vanished completely.
00:40:57Didn't leave a single trace behind.
00:41:00Well, there's one way to find out.
00:41:03Let's play dog whistle!
00:41:11That's perfect!
00:41:12Okay, Elaine.
00:41:13Okay.
00:41:14We're kind of far from the city, so let's give him, say, 15 minutes to get here?
00:41:18Okay.
00:41:19Come on, guy.
00:41:20I am divorced now.
00:41:22Elaine, it's a phone call.
00:41:24Besides, he loved it.
00:41:26That guy showed up right on cue every time.
00:41:28Every time, really?
00:41:30It's too far.
00:41:3115 minutes is impossible.
00:41:34Okay, let's just call it a night.
00:41:36But thank you guys for the party.
00:41:39That's how we are.
00:41:40Are you scared he won't show up this time?
00:41:43Come on, Elaine.
00:41:44Don't be such a buzzkill.
00:41:46I mean, we're just trying to have some fun.
00:41:48Come on.
00:41:49I mean, don't you want to see if your little lap dog still comes on your command?
00:41:54Fine.
00:42:02Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
00:42:10Did he actually block you?
00:42:14Silas, what are you doing?
00:42:16No, there is no way that Silas would block Elaine.
00:42:20He's probably playing some game with her to get her attention.
00:42:23I mean, exactly.
00:42:25That loser is sneakier than he looks.
00:42:27He's probably just trying to mess with your head.
00:42:29He's not worth thinking about.
00:42:31I just want to know what his game is.
00:42:35Can you call him from your phone?
00:42:37Tell him he has 15 minutes to get here.
00:42:40And if he does, I might give him a second chance.
00:42:46Wait, so you're saying you're going to give him another chance?
00:42:49Relax, man.
00:42:50We're just making fun of that idiot Silas.
00:43:01Wait, you guys don't think that he's so heartbroken over Elaine that he would be suicidal?
00:43:10I mean, think about it.
00:43:11Elaine, he was crazy about you.
00:43:14You divorced him out of nowhere.
00:43:15What if he can't handle life without you?
00:43:17Really?
00:43:18I mean, like, okay, he's pathetic.
00:43:20But is he that pathetic?
00:43:22Obsession makes people do crazy things.
00:43:24Elaine was basically his only reason for living.
00:43:31Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:43:33Then we're done.
00:43:34You're out of the Sterling family.
00:43:36Goodbye for good.
00:43:37So that's it then.
00:43:40Goodbye for good.
00:43:43Oh, hey, hey, hey, Elaine, are you okay?
00:43:45My chest hurts.
00:43:47I'm calling 911.
00:43:49No, no, no, no, no, I'll be okay.
00:43:51Wait, wait, everybody, back up and keep her air.
00:43:54Jesus.
00:43:55You don't really think that Silas would hurt himself, right?
00:44:00I mean, he may be pathetic, but we were still together for three years.
00:44:04I don't want anything to happen to him.
00:44:06Can one of you guys go to his place?
00:44:08Where is it?
00:44:12I don't know.
00:44:17He owned a loft before we got married.
00:44:19Maybe check there.
00:44:20We barely know the guy, Elaine.
00:44:22You're the one who was married to him for three years.
00:44:24You seriously don't know where he lived?
00:44:28I guess not.
00:44:30You never went to his place?
00:44:32No.
00:44:33Never.
00:44:36Wait, you guys were married for three years and you never went to his house?
00:44:41Look, Silas, he probably lives like in some cabin out in the woods somewhere.
00:44:46I mean, why should Elaine trek out into the wilderness?
00:44:49Everyone knows it was a fake marriage anyway.
00:44:52Elaine, does he have any friends or family we could contact?
00:44:56No, I never met any of his friends, let alone his family.
00:45:02For three years, Silas took care of everything.
00:45:06What I ate, what I wore, where I slept.
00:45:09But I never bothered to learn anything about his life.
00:45:13He got a big settlement in the divorce, right?
00:45:15Maybe his info is on the paperwork.
00:45:17He left with nothing.
00:45:18He even returned to the car that he drove around in.
00:45:20Wait, so then what was he after?
00:45:26Elaine, of course.
00:45:27She's gorgeous.
00:45:29She's smart.
00:45:30She's sexy.
00:45:31I mean, what guy wouldn't want to be with her?
00:45:33No way, man.
00:45:34Everyone knows that they didn't even share a bed.
00:45:41Alright, let's forget about Silas and let's just have some fun.
00:45:45Yeah?
00:45:46Get yourself a drink.
00:45:48No, I'm going to find him.
00:45:55Silas used to wait here for me after work.
00:46:07Silas always helps me shop here.
00:46:19Silas, where are you?
00:46:21Just tell me what game you're playing.
00:46:31Can you do me a huge favor?
00:46:44What's up?
00:46:47What's up?
00:46:48Hey, Fiona.
00:46:51Got plans tonight?
00:46:51I've got VIP tickets to the Rangers game.
00:46:55I have plans tonight, Bradley.
00:46:57Busy.
00:46:58Yeah, I've, uh...
00:47:00I've actually got plans too tonight.
00:47:02I forgot.
00:47:05You know, I'm the captain of the swim team.
00:47:09I could.
00:47:10I coach you.
00:47:11I hope you don't.
00:47:13It's one-on-one.
00:47:14Yeah?
00:47:19Who the hell are you?
00:47:21Can't you see I'm busy?
00:47:22Yeah, so...
00:47:23Coach Smith is out today.
00:47:25How about your sub?
00:47:26Coach Lancaster.
00:47:27Is that Elaine's ex-husband?
00:47:30He coaches college swimming part-time?
00:47:33Yeah.
00:47:34Coach me.
00:47:35That's hilarious.
00:47:36It is?
00:47:37Why is that?
00:47:37You really think you can teach me anything about swimming?
00:47:40I'm the captain of the goddamn swim team.
00:47:47Look, I don't care if you're the champion or the team.
00:47:50While I'm here, listen to me.
00:47:53He doesn't seem as spineless, as Elaine said.
00:47:55Why are you so cocky?
00:47:57You're just a substitute.
00:47:58You really think you can teach me anything about swimming?
00:48:01I promise you I am more than qualified to be your coach.
00:48:04Don't gotta question that.
00:48:05Okay.
00:48:06Coach qualified?
00:48:06Do you think you can handle a little challenge?
00:48:10Challenge?
00:48:11What are you thinking?
00:48:12A race.
00:48:13You beat me?
00:48:15I'll admit you're good enough to coach us.
00:48:17Sure.
00:48:17Sounds good.
00:48:18Let's do it.
00:48:19Oh.
00:48:20Not so fast.
00:48:22If you lose, you have to strip naked and bark like a dog.
00:48:26You still feel ready?
00:48:29Bradley's not just the captain.
00:48:31He's training for the Olympics.
00:48:33The guy's a bullet in the water.
00:48:36Most coaches wouldn't last a lap against him.
00:48:39Bradley.
00:48:39Coach Lancaster's our sub today.
00:48:41Show him some respect.
00:48:42This is between us, Fiona.
00:48:44Stay out of here.
00:48:45Coach Lancaster.
00:48:46You don't have to take the challenge.
00:48:48No, it's fine.
00:48:50Haven't swum in ages.
00:48:52I can use a stretch.
00:48:54Let's get to it.
00:48:57Oh no.
00:48:59He's asking for trouble.
00:49:00Did the divorce really hit him that hard?
00:49:02Bradley, come on.
00:49:03Let's go, Bradley.
00:49:04Lock him.
00:49:05Lock him.
00:49:06Lock him.
00:49:06Come on.
00:49:07All right, tough guy.
00:49:09You've got stones.
00:49:10I'll give you that.
00:49:12100 meter freestyle.
00:49:13Right here?
00:49:14Right now.
00:49:20Wow.
00:49:21Those abs.
00:49:23Okay.
00:49:24Definitely didn't see those coming.
00:49:26Hey, old man.
00:49:27Haven't worked out in ages, huh?
00:49:28Why don't you just quit now?
00:49:29We don't want you drowning in the pool.
00:49:32Okay.
00:49:3450 meters down.
00:49:3650 back.
00:49:36The first to touch the wall wins.
00:49:38All right, Coach Lancaster.
00:49:40We've got this.
00:49:41Come on.
00:49:43The last time I swam across the Pacific was, what, 500 years ago?
00:49:48Kind of missed that.
00:49:53We've got this.
00:49:54We've got this.
00:49:55We've got this.
00:49:55We've got this.
00:49:56We've got this.
00:49:56We've got this.
00:49:56We've got this.
00:49:57We've got this.
00:49:57We've got this.
00:49:57We've got this.
00:49:58We've got this.
00:49:59We've got this.
00:50:00We've got this.
00:50:00We've got this.
00:50:01We've got this.
00:50:09Why is it freezing all of a sudden?
00:50:20There's a shark.
00:50:21There's a fucking shark.
00:50:25A shark?
00:50:33Oh
00:50:34Coach Lancaster touches first Bradley bailed half way the race goes to the coach
00:50:49Shark Shark I guess we're gonna need a bigger pool
00:50:55Bradley no one saw anything weird we're really doubling down on this whole shark
00:51:00Am I seeing things?
00:51:03God I've got to be lazy too much damn stress. I'm a 500 meter butterfly. I give you a 400
00:51:09meter headstruck
00:51:11No, no, I'm just I'm off my game you you win
00:51:24I
00:51:25Probably been acting like he owns the whole damn pool because his dad's on the board and he's swim captain
00:51:29It's always creeping on girls. I'm glad someone finally knocked him down a notch
00:51:47Girl
00:51:50Oh
00:51:51Admit it. You have a
00:51:52You have a thing for Coach Lancaster
00:51:54No, that's not true. I do not
00:51:58It's not true
00:52:01I swear
00:52:03Don't look at me like that
00:52:11Alright guys good practice today. Have a good one and uh
00:52:15Oh
00:52:21Coach Lancaster like you really don't remember me
00:52:25Should I I mean we've met a few times I'm Fiona Ashford
00:52:31Elaine's best friend
00:52:33Yeah, yeah, that's right. Um
00:52:37Did you did you need something?
00:52:40No
00:52:41Great. Have a good day
00:52:46How can someone be so clueless about women it's driving me nuts
00:52:53Oh
00:52:54Ow
00:52:54Oh
00:52:58Hey Jonah, you okay?
00:53:01My stomach it hurts
00:53:05It hurts
00:53:05It hurts right here
00:53:06Abs feel uh hard and tight
00:53:08How do you know?
00:53:09It's an abdominal muscle spasm
00:53:11It happens when you don't warm up properly before swimming
00:53:14You're eight
00:53:15The student health center is probably closed by now
00:53:17Don't worry. I can
00:53:19Then call an ambulance
00:53:20No way I'll pass out before it ever gets here
00:53:24Well, I know something that might help but
00:53:27You gotta trust me
00:53:28You can take this pain away?
00:53:31What are you?
00:53:31You know sports medicine or something?
00:53:34Not exactly
00:53:35It's just a truth I picked up from an old dealer
00:53:40Or I can go to the ambulance
00:53:42No, don't be
00:53:43Please just
00:53:44Just help me
00:53:46Okay
00:53:49Here, lie down
00:53:53And lift your shirt up
00:53:57I need to see your stomach
00:53:58It's okay Fiona
00:54:00You can trust me
00:54:07It might hurt a little bit
00:54:08But just try to relax and keep your ass closed
00:54:11All right
00:54:31All right
00:54:34Should be all good to go
00:54:36Oh my god
00:54:37My pain is totally gone
00:54:39How did you
00:54:41Wait a minute
00:54:43I want to you
00:54:46Your heart
00:54:50That old healer you talk about
00:54:53It's Mr. Miyagi isn't it
00:54:56God you are unreal Coach Lancaster
00:55:00I mean is there anything that you can't do
00:55:02Well when you live long enough
00:55:07Anyways
00:55:09Just uh
00:55:10One moment properly
00:55:11Some dry clothes
00:55:12I'll eat when you're swimming
00:55:13And uh
00:55:13Should be good
00:55:16I'll be more diligent
00:55:17I promise
00:55:19Well I uh
00:55:20Guess I should be going
00:55:21Good
00:55:22Wait
00:55:24Are you gonna be running next swim practice too?
00:55:28Yeah
00:55:28Yeah
00:55:29Yeah
00:55:29Looks like it
00:55:31Um
00:55:31Do you maybe want to get lunch after?
00:55:35My treat
00:55:36Just a little way of saying thank you for helping me out
00:55:41Thanks but
00:55:42I'll pass
00:55:43Not a good day
00:55:47Seriously
00:55:49And here I thought that we were finally getting somewhere
00:56:08It's been a whole week
00:56:10And there's still no news of you
00:56:14Silas
00:56:15Did you really disappear from my life for good?
00:56:23Elaine?
00:56:24Where have you been?
00:56:25We've all been trying to reach you for days
00:56:28Work's been crazy
00:56:29So you know that you can talk to me, right?
00:56:32So what's next for you?
00:56:34Got any plans after the divorce?
00:56:37I heard Tristan's back in town
00:56:38You two getting back together?
00:56:40Didn't we were such a gossip, Fiona?
00:56:44Honestly I don't feel anything for Tristan anymore
00:56:47So there's still hope for her and Silas
00:56:50Maybe they'll find their way back to each other
00:56:54If you don't feel anything for Tristan then why'd you get a divorce?
00:56:58I mean I know that you and Silas fought
00:57:01A lot
00:57:03But
00:57:04This time feels final
00:57:09So that's it then
00:57:12Bye for good
00:57:15Maybe
00:57:15Maybe he just got tired
00:57:18He got tired?
00:57:20Are you saying that Silas was the one who wanted the divorce?
00:57:22Of course not
00:57:23I was the one who ended
00:57:25For what it's worth, Elaine
00:57:28I think that Silas is a really good man
00:57:34Come on
00:57:38I think maybe you should take some time to think things through
00:57:42Don't let pride make you walk away from someone that really cares about you
00:57:45You really think he's a good man?
00:57:48A good man doesn't freeload off of my family for three years
00:57:52He sure as hell doesn't marry a woman who's already in love with someone else
00:57:56Wasn't Silas a victim too?
00:57:58I mean your grandfather forced that marriage on the both of you
00:58:01He was just trying to honor his wishes
00:58:03And no matter how badly you treated him
00:58:06Silas never lost his temper
00:58:07Doesn't that have to count for something?
00:58:13You called me
00:58:14I thought you were in trouble
00:58:16But you were just behind my back calling me a dumb chud to your friends
00:58:18That's right
00:58:20Then we're done
00:58:21You are out of the Sterling family for good
00:58:26Maybe you're right, Fiona
00:58:29But it doesn't matter, we're already divorced
00:58:32You were married to Silas for three years
00:58:34But you never really knew each other
00:58:38Maybe this divorce could be the chance to start things over
00:58:40Sit down with him as equals
00:58:43Talk things through
00:58:44You both deserve at least that much
00:58:48I'd love to
00:58:50But I don't even know where Silas is anymore
00:58:54Well then it's a good thing I do
00:58:56You know where Silas is?
00:58:58He's been subbing as a swim coach at my university
00:59:01Is he going to be there tomorrow?
00:59:03Yeah, I think so
00:59:06Elaine, what's going on?
00:59:07You look kind of tense
00:59:09It's nothing, it's just a slight headache
00:59:11Come on, I'll take you home
00:59:16Black ivory coffee
00:59:18Your favorite coffee
00:59:19I had it flown in from Thailand this morning just for you
00:59:23You're trying to butter me up
00:59:24What do you want, kid?
00:59:25Am I really so obvious?
00:59:28Well, look, as you know, I've been back home for a couple of days
00:59:32And I have been dying to help out with the family business
00:59:35I was thinking I could take point on the Hudson Yards
00:59:38That is a great idea
00:59:40It's good to see you stepping up for the family
00:59:43Thank you so much
00:59:44I will not let you down
00:59:46Okay
00:59:47Oh, um
00:59:48I also did want to ask
00:59:50I heard that there was going to be a VIP guest at the Whitmore Estate
00:59:54Who exactly is that person?
01:00:03What do you want to do with the family business?
01:00:03Tristan, tell me, have you ever seen a god?
01:00:09Are you being serious?
01:00:10I haven't seen a god
01:00:11I don't think anyone has seen a god
01:00:14You'd be surprised
01:00:15Imagine someone lives for over 2,000 years
01:00:19You've seen the rise and fall of civilizations
01:00:23Commanded armies that have changed the course of history
01:00:26They've mastered every field of human knowledge
01:00:29And they have a speed and a strength beyond human capabilities
01:00:35What would you call him?
01:00:362,000 years you say, huh?
01:00:38Is there really a person like that?
01:00:40The world is a strange place, Tristan
01:00:42Just because you haven't seen him
01:00:44That doesn't mean he isn't
01:00:48All right guys, good practice
01:00:50You can go home
01:00:58Sanders, look
01:01:00I couldn't get the butterfly stroke if you show me
01:01:02It's Coach Lancaster and we're on camp
01:01:04Fine
01:01:06Coach Lancaster, could you please show me the butterfly again?
01:01:10Better
01:01:10Coach Lancaster
01:01:12Hey, I've been expecting you
01:01:14Great to see you again
01:01:17Oh, I'm sorry
01:01:18Are you guys in the middle of something?
01:01:20No, it can wait
01:01:21Okay
01:01:22Great
01:01:23Then I'd like to have a word with you in my office
01:01:25Yeah, of course
01:01:27Why is Dean Brown fanboying all over Silas?
01:01:31Is he really just a part-time swim coach?
01:01:38Wait
01:01:44Silas, what the hell are you doing?
01:01:46Did you really change your number just to avoid me?
01:01:49I had that number to stay in contact with
01:01:51We're divorced now
01:01:52Why keep it?
01:01:53So you just disappear?
01:01:56Walk out of my life like I never meant anything to you?
01:01:59Are you really that cold?
01:02:01Cold
01:02:02I didn't ask for a divorce
01:02:05You didn't
01:02:06Sit down with him as he thinks
01:02:08Talk things through
01:02:09We both deserve that much
01:02:13You're right
01:02:15I was the one who brought up the divorce
01:02:19But I wasn't serious
01:02:21Look, I just want to talk to you
01:02:23Can you please give me a chance?
01:02:36What?
01:02:37You used to pull out my chair for me
01:02:39Every single time we went out
01:02:42Didn't take you long to drop that habit, did it?
01:02:45We were divorced
01:02:45That's in the past
01:02:48You
01:02:53Fine
01:02:55We're not a couple anymore
01:02:56But we're still friends
01:02:59You could still pull out my chair for me
01:03:02Show a little gentlemanly courtesy, right?
01:03:04We're not friends
01:03:05I'm not going to be a gentleman
01:03:06You don't get to play with my emotions anymore
01:03:08What did you just say?
01:03:10Okay, so you didn't come here to have a conversation
01:03:11This was a mistake
01:03:12Uh, I'm going to go
01:03:14How long do you plan on sulking for?
01:03:17You think I'm sulking?
01:03:18Look, maybe I was too harsh before
01:03:22But it's been days, Silas
01:03:25I swallowed my pride to talk things through
01:03:27Don't you think it's time to let that all go?
01:03:30Okay, so you meant you've been harsh
01:03:31Yes, I was wrong, I admit
01:03:35That's why I'm here
01:03:37To ask you to come back home
01:03:41You want me to come back home?
01:03:43That's right
01:03:44My parents got used to your cooking
01:03:46And I got used to you taking care of me
01:03:48If you come back, I won't be so hard on you
01:03:51Maybe give you more spending money?
01:03:54So you want me to come back home
01:03:55And be a good boy for treats, is that it?
01:03:59I mean, you really only view me as a family pet, don't you?
01:04:01I just want us to go back to living a good life
01:04:05No, what you're saying is you want me to come back
01:04:07And cook for you and clean for you
01:04:09And be a servant to your family
01:04:10That's not a good life
01:04:11I don't...
01:04:12Don't test me, Silas
01:04:14I'm running out of patience
01:04:16If you came back to have a real conversation
01:04:18And apologize, I would listen
01:04:20But you didn't
01:04:21You came back to throw crumbs off your high horse
01:04:23Because of that, I'm gonna go
01:04:29Hey
01:04:31I came here out of consideration for everything that you've done for me the past three years
01:04:37But if you think that you can guilt me into submission, you are dead wrong
01:04:42I am the sterling heiress
01:04:44I run half of the deals in the city
01:04:47I mean, you really think that you can play games with me?
01:04:49You think you run half of the deals?
01:04:51That's really funny
01:04:52Do you think any of these people would be lining up for you if it wasn't for my help?
01:04:56Your help?
01:04:57You, who the hell do you think you are, Silas?
01:04:59If you keep talking to me like that, I swear to god, I will take back every single thing I've
01:05:03ever given you
01:05:04I'm sorry, what was that?
01:05:06You're taking back everything you gave me
01:05:10Please, don't make me laugh
01:05:12God, you have been mooching off of the Sterlings for three years
01:05:16And I never said a word, but
01:05:18Peering you like this?
01:05:20Charles Sterling made this company 50 years ago
01:05:22And you're gonna be the one to destroy it
01:05:24You are still the same spoiled princess who never faced reality
01:05:27Never learned your lesson
01:05:29I feel like now's the time I should finally teach you that lesson
01:05:32Well, please, by all means, great and powerful Silas, show me the error of my ways
01:05:38Hey, guys, why are we fighting?
01:05:42I thought you said that you were gonna talk things through, Aline
01:05:45Start over, remember?
01:05:46Yeah, that's not necessary anymore
01:05:48You were wrong, Fiona, Silas is not a good man
01:05:51He's just a pathetic clown
01:05:54No, you must have misunderstood something
01:05:56Silas isn't like that, he's a decent person
01:05:58Seriously?
01:06:00The man has no real job, he just sponges off of women
01:06:04He is all swagger and no substance
01:06:06What is so decent about that?
01:06:08He's not like that at all
01:06:10You have it all wrong
01:06:11Whose side are you on here, Fiona?
01:06:13Are you my friend?
01:06:15I am, but Silas is my friend too
01:06:18Since when?
01:06:22Wait, are you falling for him?
01:06:24No, no, it's not like that at all
01:06:26I just, Silas is a good person
01:06:28And you're a good person too
01:06:29I just don't think you guys should be fighting
01:06:32Shut up, Fiona
01:06:33If you think he's so great, then fine
01:06:36He is all yours
01:06:38Just don't ever speak to me again
01:06:40Oh, Aline, wait
01:06:44I'm sorry
01:06:45Aline's just upset
01:06:48So
01:06:48No, don't defend her
01:06:50She's still the same prideful Judd who is driven by ego
01:06:54And won't learn her lesson until life finally knocks her down
01:06:57Knocks her down?
01:07:05Dad, why would Dean Brown act deferential towards someone?
01:07:09Warren Brown deferential?
01:07:11I find that hard to imagine
01:07:13He comes from old money
01:07:14He's one of the most respected professors
01:07:16He's worked with some of the most influential politicians
01:07:20CEOs of the country
01:07:21In this city
01:07:23They defer to him, not the other way around
01:07:26Weird
01:07:26I definitely watched him totally fawn all over some of the time
01:07:31What? Who was that?
01:07:33Warren Brown says it's time for you to wait
01:07:35The president will wait for him
01:07:36I find it hard to even earn that level of respect for him
01:07:40Wow, so
01:07:41Dean Brown's really that big of a deal?
01:07:45So Silas can't be just some part-time coach
01:07:49I need to tell Aline
01:07:55Oh Aline, you're here
01:07:57Tristan, what are you doing here?
01:07:59Well, you know, Uncle Mark, he had me lead the Hudson project run point
01:08:04Really do some logistical work and managerial stuff
01:08:07The board gets weekly updates
01:08:09You don't need to meet privately with me to discuss things
01:08:12Aline, don't be so rude
01:08:15This project has a lot of details
01:08:18It's a big deal for us
01:08:19Please, talk with Tristan
01:08:21There's nothing to talk about
01:08:23Aline, what are you talking about?
01:08:26Tristan, please
01:08:27Don't take this personally
01:08:30She's been on edge since the divorce
01:08:31She didn't mean it
01:08:33Right, Aline?
01:08:35I will present the project updates at the next board meeting as planned
01:08:39Tristan
01:08:41It's Aline
01:08:43You realize I came back from London for you, right?
01:08:45And now what?
01:08:46Since you're divorced, you can't give me a chance
01:08:49Aline
01:08:50Don't be rude
01:08:51This is me being polite
01:08:52I have no interest in rehashing the past
01:08:56So stop coming around to see me
01:08:59Unbelievable
01:09:00I mean, I get you the Hudson Yard project
01:09:02And what?
01:09:03This is how you pay me back right now?
01:09:05Really?
01:09:06Nice try, Tristan
01:09:06My people looked into Hudson Yards
01:09:08And it was set aside for us
01:09:11Long before your help
01:09:14I mean, you're just a Nepo baby
01:09:16You have zero influence over a deal this major
01:09:19Mr. Whitmar already planned to give us the project
01:09:22Why?
01:09:24Maybe he saw potential in us
01:09:27Whatever the case, it has nothing to do with Tristan
01:09:30So are you gonna leave or do I need to show you the door?
01:09:34You'll regret this, Aline
01:09:42Aline, you've been so tense lately
01:09:44Is this about Silas?
01:09:46Of course not
01:09:47I'm just sick of men proving that they are cut from the same disappointing cloth
01:09:52What?
01:09:53What did I do?
01:09:56Silas, you wasted your chance
01:09:58Don't come crawling to me when you finally realize it
01:10:09What are you doing here, Silas?
01:10:12What?
01:10:13You've come to beg for your spot back at the Sterling house?
01:10:17Well, I hate to break it to you, but you're not welcome here anymore
01:10:19What's the matter, Tristan?
01:10:21Sterling's took you out?
01:10:22Or maybe I just don't like you
01:10:24Man, here's what these days
01:10:26I've got no respect
01:10:27Don't call me kid
01:10:29You asshole!
01:10:31I mean, if you hadn't messed up my dinner at the Japanese restaurant
01:10:34I would be fucking Aline by now
01:10:43Fucking hit me
01:10:44Break his legs
01:10:46Okay, Mr. Whiphog
01:10:47Be careful there, Chugs
01:10:49What you do right now, you can't undo
01:10:51Big talk coming from a guy who was kicked on his ass to the street by the Sterlings
01:10:57Now what the fuck are you guys waiting for?
01:10:59Get him
01:11:11Wow, that's pretty impressive
01:11:14I see where you get your attitude
01:11:15But if you have forgotten, you fucked with the Whitmores
01:11:18That's practically a death sentence
01:11:20You're gonna keep talking or you can actually do something
01:11:23You listen to me
01:11:24The Whitmores, we're meeting with a very important VIP tonight
01:11:28Get on your knees and beg for my forgiveness
01:11:31And I might just let this slide
01:11:32And what if I told you that very important guest?
01:11:35It's me
01:11:36I mean, you're kidding me, right?
01:11:40I mean, you're just a leech
01:11:42That suckles from the Sterlings
01:11:44You think that a VIP like you who mooches off women
01:11:48Is that important?
01:11:50Hey, I'm here
01:11:51Pick me up
01:11:52Yes, sir
01:11:53I'm on my way
01:11:54The game's a foot
01:11:56Let's go
01:11:58Would you stop with this game?
01:12:00I mean, who are you really trying to fool?
01:12:07Uncle Mark
01:12:09What are you doing here?
01:12:14Uncle Mark
01:12:14Our utmost respect, Divine One
01:12:20Mr. Lancaster is more than sufficient
01:12:23As you wish, Mr. Lancaster
01:12:24I can't be serious
01:12:26I mean, he's just a freeloader for the Sterlings
01:12:29Shut up
01:12:30I am not in a giving vein today
01:12:32Mr. Lancaster only humbled himself living with that family
01:12:35So he could honor Charles Sterling's dying wish
01:12:40And he's too young to be the VIP
01:12:42Mr. Lancaster is immortal
01:12:43He's looked exactly the same for over 2,000 years
01:12:47You listen, Uncle
01:12:48Sixty years ago when he arrived
01:12:50Mr. Lancaster made New York's most powerful families and corporations
01:12:55Live
01:12:56Every one of their leaders swore loyalty to him
01:13:01Willingly
01:13:04You're kidding, right?
01:13:05Yet it is
01:13:06Now, get on your knees and apologize to Mr. Lancaster
01:13:11Mr. Lancaster, I am so sorry
01:13:13I had no idea it was you
01:13:14Please find it in your heart
01:13:19I called you for two reasons
01:13:21One, I'm leaving New York
01:13:22I'm to the world again and uh
01:13:25I'll be back for a few decades
01:13:27When you return, we will be here
01:13:29The Whitmore loyalty is yours today, tomorrow
01:13:31And from every generation after us
01:13:34Second, the Sterling
01:13:38Sir, don't worry
01:13:39I myself will make sure that the Sterlings are well taken care of in your absence
01:13:44No
01:13:44Charles Sterling made a Sterling company 50 years ago
01:13:47Williams now fit to him
01:13:49And Elaine is
01:13:50Zerrigan
01:13:51She's too young
01:13:52Ms. Sterling's will fail
01:13:54You're right
01:13:55As always
01:13:57What do you need from us?
01:13:58True the Sterling group like any other company from here on out
01:14:02With no special treatment, no exceptions
01:14:06Understood
01:14:14Ms. Sterling, Whitmore just froze the Hudson Yards project
01:14:16They're questioning the company's qualifications and want to audit the entire project proposal
01:14:21What?
01:14:22Our vendors are freaking out
01:14:23Some are demanding payment in advance
01:14:25What should we do?
01:14:27Just try to reassure them
01:14:30I'll sort this out when I get in
01:14:32Damn it
01:14:33This was never part of the deal
01:14:35Do we have the audit file they're asking for?
01:14:37No
01:14:38Whitmore's benchmarks are sky high
01:14:40Sterling can't deliver and honestly I can't even think of a company in New York that could
01:14:44What the hell is wrong with the Whitmore's?
01:14:47Why mess with us?
01:14:48Wait
01:14:49This has to be Tristan
01:14:50You pissed him off and he's stormed out
01:14:53This has to be payment
01:14:54I don't think it's him
01:14:56Who else could it be?
01:14:58Just call him and apologize
01:15:00This business deal means everything for us
01:15:03If Tristan really is trying to get back at us
01:15:06Do you actually think that apologizing would fix anything?
01:15:09Marry him
01:15:11Marry him
01:15:13He's into you and this is a perfect match for our families
01:15:15What on earth are you talking about?
01:15:24You following me?
01:15:25Look, Uncle Mark, he told me to stick by you in case you need anything so
01:15:29Yeah
01:15:30He's hoping by you hanging around you'll uh
01:15:32Let me open
01:15:33You don't miss the thing do you Mr. Lancaster?
01:15:36For Mark's sake
01:15:37Sure
01:15:38I'm gonna go for one more stroll around New York
01:15:40Before I leave
01:15:40With the arrangements
01:15:42Okay
01:15:42Absolutely Mr. Lancaster
01:15:44I'll take care of all of it
01:15:51Mr. Lancaster can we get you some water?
01:15:53Okay, that's fine, but
01:15:58What the?
01:16:00I'm just gonna go
01:16:01I'll go right back
01:16:02Yeah
01:16:03Tristan, what the hell?
01:16:05Your nose is so far up this loser's ass right now
01:16:07You okay?
01:16:13What is wrong with you?
01:16:15You hate Gabriel over Silas?
01:16:18He kept you apart from Elaine for three years
01:16:21What?
01:16:23Don't you two ever disrespect Mr. Lancaster again, okay?
01:16:28Otherwise we are done completely
01:16:29What the hell?
01:16:30Does he have something on you or something?
01:16:33No, my respect for him is genuine
01:16:35And here's a little piece of advice for you two
01:16:37Mr. Lancaster's influence is far beyond anything you could ever imagine
01:16:40You two better start showing him some respect and real soon
01:16:44Is Silas someone important?
01:16:46I don't know
01:16:47It's the way that Tristan is acting maybe
01:16:50Maybe
01:16:51We better just apologize to him and get out of here, okay?
01:16:54Silas
01:16:55Mr. Lancaster
01:16:56We're very sorry we never met any disrespect
01:17:00Don't worry about it
01:17:01You guys were never worth it
01:17:03Right
01:17:03Well, that's good I guess
01:17:10It's the Sterlings
01:17:14Tristan, honey
01:17:15Elaine has something very important to say to you
01:17:17Are you free right now?
01:17:18Maybe you could come over and have a chat
01:17:20Sir, the Sterlings they want to meet you should I turn them down?
01:17:24Let them come
01:17:26You guys are welcome to come
01:17:29I came as soon as I got your call
01:17:31What's going on?
01:17:32We need to do a compliant audit for Hudson Yards
01:17:35But we don't have the infrastructure set up yet
01:17:38Your dad's an expert in that area
01:17:40Is there any way you could help us?
01:17:42My dad's at a conference in Beijing
01:17:43But I know someone who can
01:17:46Please don't say Tristan
01:17:47I was actually talking about Silas
01:17:50Okay
01:17:51I know I might sound crazy
01:17:52But please just hear me out
01:17:54Silas is actually a mythical being
01:17:57Who has been alive for a lot longer than we thought, virtually
01:18:19And it's a lot, I know
01:18:23How could Silas possibly have anything to do with this?
01:18:26He's a complete nobody
01:18:27I know it might be hard for you to believe
01:18:29But Silas actually has a lot more power than you realize
01:18:33So you know that I would never lie to you
01:18:37Enough of this nonsense
01:18:39Tristan's waiting
01:18:40Elaine, let's go
01:18:48Rebecca? Gabriel? What are you guys doing here?
01:18:50We just bumped into each other
01:18:54Tristan dear, you look more handsome every time I see you
01:18:58Enough with the flattery, Miss Sherling
01:19:00What are you really after?
01:19:01The Hudson Yards project seems to be put on hold
01:19:04And we wondered if you could talk to your uncle
01:19:07You know, smooth things over
01:19:08Sorry, but I have no say in that
01:19:10See? He has nothing to do with it
01:19:13If you really want to talk to whoever calls the shots
01:19:15You're gonna have to speak to Mr. Lancaster himself
01:19:18Mr. Lancaster?
01:19:20You mean Silas?
01:19:22Don't be ridiculous, Tristan
01:19:24He doesn't have that kind of power
01:19:26I mean, you guys only got the project
01:19:27Because he was doing a favor for my uncle Mark
01:19:30Tristan, are you messing with me?
01:19:32Come on, everyone knows that you and Silas hate each other
01:19:35You really expect me to believe a word of this?
01:19:37Would you believe it if I said it myself?
01:19:41Mr. Whitmore, how can we fix this Hudson Yards project?
01:19:45Mr. Whitmore, the Sterling Group might not have as much influence
01:19:49But we signed a contract, you can't just push us around
01:19:52Why do you think I gave you that contract in the first place?
01:19:55Sterling Group clearly didn't meet the qualification
01:19:58It was a favor to Mr. Lancaster
01:20:01Since he's no longer tied to your family, well, business is business
01:20:04My god, so was Silas all along
01:20:07What are we supposed to do now?
01:20:09I told you Elaine Silas was a good man, but no
01:20:12Just had to go and divorce him
01:20:14Silas, come out, I know you're here
01:20:25Don't you ever teach you a lesson, so?
01:20:29What'd you learn?
01:20:31What, so that's what this is about?
01:20:32You wanted to see me break down, beg for your forgiveness?
01:20:37Oh, well guess what, that is never gonna happen
01:20:41Look, I don't know how you got to the Whitmores, but Sterling Group will be just fine without Hudson Yards
01:20:47We have plenty of other deals lined up
01:20:48The truth is right in front of you, you're just choosing not to believe it
01:20:52How do you explain the two harbor shipping licenses I secured last week?
01:20:57Massive shipments worth billions moving in and out every day, you're telling me that's because of you too?
01:21:08All right, the Sterling shipping license
01:21:11Hanson, book ports
01:21:13Yeah, immediately, thanks so much
01:21:16You are still keeping up this little act, Silas?
01:21:20You really think that if you just snap your fingers you can shut us down?
01:21:24Any second now
01:21:25What?
01:21:33Miss Sterling, something's wrong
01:21:34We just heard from the port authority, they're suspending both of our shipping licenses
01:21:38What?
01:21:38Why is this happening to me?
01:21:41I worked so hard for all of this, it's over, I've lost everything
01:21:49Elaine, don't say that, Silas is still here, you can fix this
01:21:53So those contracts, all the partnerships, they were all because of you?
01:21:59Can you believe me now?
01:22:00All this time you were helping us from behind the scenes, everything we have is because of you
01:22:08God, I paraded around, proud, arrogant, showing off in front of you like a complete fool
01:22:15You put up with three years of that, God, you must have hated every minute of it
01:22:21Doesn't matter now, I just did what a husband should do
01:22:23And what you're always asked, that's all
01:22:26I'm so sorry, Silas
01:22:30I was terrible to you, I pushed you away, I blamed you for everything
01:22:35As soon as we got divorced, I regretted it immediately, and I searched everywhere for you
01:22:42But when I finally found you and had the chance to tell you, I let my pride get in the
01:22:48way
01:22:48And I destroyed us all over again, I am so sorry, so sorry
01:22:56It's true, Elaine's been miserable since the divorce
01:22:59Yeah, totally, she tried to come back, but
01:23:02I know
01:23:04Silas used to wait here for me after work
01:23:10I know you're sorry, and I accept your apology
01:23:13And if you want, I can get Sterling Group back on track
01:23:17I want to rebuild Sterling on my own
01:23:19I just have one last question for you
01:23:22Silas
01:23:24These three years, you never really loved me
01:23:28That your kindness and your patience, it was just pity, wasn't it?
01:23:33I'm sorry
01:23:35It's true
01:23:36We were never really equals
01:23:39But I'm gonna change that, step by step, on my own
01:23:43Maybe one day, you'll finally respect me
01:23:45I'm looking forward to
01:23:52I guess she really has changed
01:23:56Yeah, she really has
01:23:59So coach, what's next for you?
01:24:01I don't know
01:24:02I saw him leave New York
01:24:04To the world
01:24:05We're back in a few years though
01:24:06So it's changed
01:24:07Take it easy, Fiona
01:24:12Damn Fiona, you are so into him
01:24:14I am not
01:24:15I don't
